This article describes the design and construction of a combined diversion tunnel-service spillway at the Tashkumyr hydroelectric plant on the Naryn River which during construction served as a diversion tunnel and during operation serves as a spillway. The combined function of the structure made possible a savings of about four million rubles. Gate and tower intake design for the diversion tunnels was influenced by the layout of the Rogun hydroelectric plant. Seismic and tectonic evaluations of this kind of construction are given for different geological conditions at possible Soviet sites. Extensive illustrations are included.
